After arriving in Berlin and dropping my bag off at the left luggage lockers in the Hauptbahnhof I picked up a ticket and headed deep into the surrounding Brandenburg state to the city of Brandenburg an der Havel.
I only had a couple of hours to look round so I started by having a wander over towards the old town and the Cathedral Island. It was only as I walked past the second closed museum of the day that it finally twigged that it was a Monday, and consequently everything was going to be shut.
The Cathedral, or what of the Cathedral wasn’t undergoing a major renovation, was open to have a look around and a quick visit to the Cathedral museum.
I continued on having a wander around the town, taking in the ruins of the city walls and many watch towers that surround the old town.
By the time I eventually arrived at the back of the old town, having seen most things, I realised it was time I needed to head back towards the station and make the long journey home.
Back in Berlin just over an hour later I picked up my bags from the Hauptbahnhof, back tracked a couple of station to Zoo and picked up the airport express bus back out to Tegal and my flight home.
